Chimp RH bilge pump

[PabloPicasso]

I have a bilge pump with CHIMP RH in letters on the base of the pump handle. It still works but dribles a bit into the cockpit when pumping so I'd like to give it a service.

Anyone know if spares are easily available, and if so where from? A quick google search wasn't very helpful.

Thanks

I've e-mailed them the pic and asked if they can help

Apparently the RH in Chimp RH stands for removable handle. there are no identifying marks on the pump so I will have to disassemble before being able to order spares.

I'll let you know how Iget on

It's an old Henderson pump.

I have the same pump and just got back from local chandlers where he told me the service kit was approx £50

What I'm contemplating is getting a new upto date pump instead BUT as it is thru deck mounted there is quite a large hole , does anyone know of a replacement pump that will fit the hole ? , it worked fine , I'm just not feeling the £50 for a peice of rubber !!!!

Whale & Henderson are same company by the way ..

I have 2 through deck Whale bilge pumps, but they don't look like that; they have a straight tube handle which fits into a tubular socket on the bellows, so worth looking at the Whale range - sorry I don't remember the model.

Looks like the Compac 5 is the modern version of mine.
